Volunteers

Volunteers are crucial to the operation of St. Anthony’s Padua Dining Room. Without their help it would be impossible to assist the hungry. They pick-up, distribute and prepare food and serve a nourishing lunch six days a week, year around.

Currently we have over 150 enthusiastic and hardworking volunteers who come from many different backgrounds. Teachers, retired professionals, clergy, homemakers, businesspeople and students are all part of our volunteer corps. Please join us to prep food, serve lunch or to assist with fund-raising efforts.

In the following video, Max Torres, Operations Manager for the Padua Dining Room at St Anthony’s Catholic Church in Menlo Park, CA presents an overview of this service with a special focus on the volunteers without whom the continuing success of the program would not be possible.
